8. Narrative Statement of Significance:
This property and the surrounding neighborhood were evaluated as part of an In-depth Architectural
and Historic Survey conducted by Jim Jacobsen of History Pays! in 2002. The property at that time
was not identified as National Register Eligible. Although 11 years have passed since the in-depth
survey, the property is still not National Register Eligible. The structure has aluminum
siding/soffit/fascia/casings, windows have been replaced, the front gable window has been sided over,
and the front porch has been modified. The property retains little architectural integrity.
Historical Notes: Robert Timmermann owned the lot on October 28, 1965 when a new copper water
line was installed.
